More on Aminos…
Amino acids play a pivotal role in the growth and development of plants. Due to their fundamental importance, plants have evolved efficient mechanisms for digesting amino acids. In fact, plants possess various enzymes and transport systems specialized for the uptake and utilization of amino acids from the surrounding soil solution. This efficient digestion ensures that plants can readily access the essential building blocks required for synthesizing proteins, enzymes, and other vital molecules necessary for their growth. For plant growers, utilizing the digestibility of amino acids by plant is beneficial, as it easily improves the overall health and vigor of their plants.
Amino acids facilitate rapid growth and development, allowing plants to reach their full potential in terms of size and yield. Additionally, amino acids contribute to enhanced stress tolerance, enabling plants to withstand environmental pressures such as heat, drought, or disease more effectively. Moreover, easily digested amino acids can improve overall nutrient uptake, ensuring that plants have access to essential nutrients necessary for optimal growth. Overall, incorporating amino acids into the nutrient regimen can lead to healthier, more robust plants with improved yields, ultimately satisfying the goals of growers aiming for top-quality harvests.
Low cost, slim-line and ultra light, these can easily be installed in cloning racks or propagation tents. They can also be hung vertically to be used as supplemental lighting for dark tent corners and in between plantings.

The Blumat Classic XL Sensor 2 Pack keeps indoor plants watered automatically when they need it! A simpler version of the Blumat Tropf System, where the water is drawn from any container through a thin tube and released directly through the clay cone “carrot” into the plant’s root zone.
Blumat Classic range is the tried and tested solution for the reliable watering of all kinds of indoor plants. Simple and totally safe to use, at the weekend, on holiday or all year round. Also suitable for the watering of balcony plants when youāre on holiday in the XL version.
You can regulate the amount of water that each plant will receive be adjusting the height of the water container relative to the plant pot:
(Notice how the Classic XL Sensors allow more watering in a day the Classic Standard Sensors)
Follow the quick-start guide below to install you Blumat Classic Sensors (“carrots”).
Extra care can be taken by priming the 3mm feeding tube beforehand to ensure that it is full of water as well
Step 4 can also be done with the carrot submerged underwater – making sure that there are absolutely no air bubble inside the system.
Whether a person can use a mineral nutrient solution for feeding in conjunction with the Blumat system is debatable – as the small diameter pipping may easily clog up over time with normal salt build-ups and nutrient calcification. A flushing and rinsing agent like FlashClean may have to be used periodically to dissolve any nutrient build-up inside the piping and/or clay cone “carrots”.Ā An alternative would be to top-feed with your favorite nutrient range as needed and to rely on the Blumat system for regular watering in between feedings.

Six Port Sprinkler Bubbler Manifold – an ideal component if you are building a small or medium sized automated watering system!
This economical sprinkler manifold screws into standard so called 1/2″ (approx. 17mm) male threaded sprinkler adaptor fittings and allows for the connection of up to 6 “5mm” irrigation lines. These 5mm watering lines (commonly in use in residential and agricultural irrigation and often referred to as micro-sprinkler piping) can each water an individual potted plant. Fewer lines can be utilized as well – simply leave the end caps that the unit comes with attached to each outlet that is not being used.
The water output per line per minute will of course be determined by the amount of water pressure that the Six Port Sprinkler Bubbler Manifold is connected to – pond pump normally do not provide lots of pressure, and if they are used, the pump may have to remain on for a longer period of time before the desired amount of water has been applied to each pot. A simple test can be run after the watering system has been installed, to see how many liters of water is provided by each outlet per minute – simply place an outlet inside of a measuring jug and use your smartphone’s stopwatch function to run the pump for one minute. Then see how much water has been added to the jug.
Multiple manifolds can be used to set up a single watering system, but remember that increased pump sizes / increased water pressures will be need as the number of manifolds are increased. The output of each manifold and 5mm irrigation line may also vary – depending on the way that the system is set up… if the water pressure in the main supply line is not equalized, the manifold furthest from the water source inlet will have a smaller flowrate than the closer ones. 5mm lines that are substantially longer than the others will also have a lesser flow-rate.
Analogue or digital timers can be used to automatically turn watering on and off during a 24 hr or weekly period.
USE PLUMBER’S TAPE ON THE MALE FITTING TO ENSURE A WATERTIGHT CONNECTION!!
TIP: A simple pressure-equalizing base can easily be constructed with a bit of piping and irrigation fittings, as in the picture below…

After dipping…
To optimize the rooting process for cuttings that have been dipped in rooting hormone, maintaining ideal environmental conditions is paramount.
Firstly, controlling humidity levels is crucial; ensure a consistent humidity of around 70-80% to prevent desiccation while promoting root development. Additionally, maintaining an optimal temperature range between 21-24Ā°C encourages metabolic activity without stressing the cuttings.
Secondly, providing adequate aeration is vital for preventing fungal growth and ensuring oxygen supply to the developing roots. This can be achieved through proper ventilation and avoiding overcrowding of cuttings.
Lastly, employing a well-draining, sterile rooting medium such as perlite or vermiculite promotes root growth and reduces the risk of rotting. Regular monitoring of moisture levels and adjustment of watering frequency accordingly is essential to prevent waterlogging and maintain optimal conditions for rooting success.
Vertical tower systems like the Vertigrow 28 Hydroponic Tower, has revolutionized traditional agriculture by maximizing space efficiency and optimizing resource utilization. These innovative setups enable plants to thrive in a vertical arrangement, utilizing a fraction of the space required by conventional horizontal farming. By stacking multiple tiers of plants, these towers make it possible to cultivate a diverse range of crops in a relatively small footprint. This is particularly beneficial in urban environments where space is limited, opening up new avenues for local, sustainable food production. The vertical orientation also promotes efficient nutrient and water distribution, as well as adequate exposure to light, essential for healthy plant growth.
One of the key advantages of vertical hydroponic tower systems is utilizing nutrient-rich water solutions and a soil-less growing environment – these systems deliver essential nutrients directly to the plant roots, leading to accelerated growth rates and higher yields. Additionally, they minimize the risk of soil-borne pests and diseases, reducing the need for pesticides and herbicides. This sustainable approach to farming not only conserves water and reduces the reliance on arable land, but also offers a promising solution to feeding a growing global population while minimizing the ecological footprint of agriculture. Vertical tower systems represent a forward-thinking approach that holds great potential for the future of food production.
EC Calibrating Solution 2.764 to be used with the Digital EC Pen
When using a meter to measure either the ppm of total dissolved solids or conductivity of a liquid, it is necessary to periodically calibrate the meter using a calibration standard solution. Although the basis for testing ppm of total dissolved solids is the conductivity of the solution, it is not correct to assume that this measurement is absolute.
It is always necessary to calibrate all total dissolved solids meters with a parts per million total dissolved solids standard calibration solution that contains the same type of salts or mixtures of salts as the solution to be tested. Failure to do this will result in serious errors in the measurement of total dissolved solids.
Refer to Digital Pen instructions for type of calibrating solution required.
HOW CAN I GET THE BEST READING
SHAKE:
Always make sure to shake excess water off the probe before dipping it into a water sample, even if it’s the same water.
STIR / TAP:
After dipping probe in the water, always lightly tap it against the side and stir the meter to remove any lingering air bubbles.
POSITIONING:
When taking the reading, always make sure to hold the meter straight up without it touching the sides or bottom of the glass/beaker/cup. The probes should be suspended as close to the center of the water sample as possible. In-line meter probes need to be positioned in the tee so that the water will flow between the two metal prongs, not against them.
TIME:
The longer the probe is in the water, the more accurate the reading will be.
RINSE:
If switching between very low and very high PPM water, always rinse the probes with water to avoid any build-up.Ā Rinse probe under running water after each rest to avoid salt buildup on Probe.

How to dry-ice kief shake…
To perform a dry-ice cannabis shake using a trim tray mesh screen and a kief-catching bin, start by assembling your equipment: a trim tray with a mesh screen, a kief-catching bin, dry ice, cannabis trim or buds, and protective gloves. Place the trim tray over the kief-catching bin on a clean, flat surface. Wearing gloves to protect your hands from the extreme cold, break the dry ice into small chunks and mix it with the cannabis trim in the trim tray. Gently shake the tray back and forth for a few minutes, allowing the dry ice to freeze the trichomes, making them brittle and easy to separate. As you shake, the kief will fall through the mesh screen and collect in the bin below. Once youāve collected enough kief or the cannabis appears dusty, stop shaking. The collected kief can then be used to enhance joints, bowls, or pressed into hash.
